Cruise and Walmart have begun delivering in Arizona using its self-driving delivery service that aims to expand on the technology in the nearby regions. Walmart is a famous investor in Cruise's company, funding its services and development of the self-driving vehicles from the renowned startup.
The self-driving capabilities of Cruise are known for its ability to be on modern-day vehicles, and it does not need a sophisticated car for this, turning most ones into a self-driving Cruise.
Cruise and Walmart Bring Self-Driving Delivery Tech to Arizona
Cruise announced on Twitter that the company and Walmart expanded on their operations for a self-driving delivery service in Arizona, focusing on logistics for the systems. The self-driving technology assures that all deliveries are coming to the public on time, giving them a chance to choose an option for a more streamlined delivery.
It is only a limited service in Arizona now, but the company plans to extend its deliveries in other Walmart locations. Chandler and Scottsdale Walmarts will soon have Cruise's autonomous delivery system available in their areas, giving them a chance to experience the service and have an option for delivery via this system.
Cruise and Walmart: Expanding to Other Regions Soon
Walmart and Cruise's investment and partnership are paying off, and it is with the start of the autonomous deliveries that will bring their packages or what they bought from the retail store straight to their homes. Cruise's new venture would give new purpose and functions to its self-driving systems initially considered for ride-hailing only.
Cruise and its Autonomous Features
Waymo and Cruise are some of the self-driving vehicle technology ventures from Big Tech companies, including Google and General Motors. These companies had their robotaxis or self-driving taxi cabs available for hire in San Fransisco, having a limited availability in the county, being the place for its beta testing.
General Motors plays a massive role in Cruise's operations as its parent and principal benefactor. The self-driving technology and systems that the subsidiary brings to the table aim to hook itself on modern vehicles, also focusing primarily on electric cars.
GM recently gave Cruise a $5 billion credit line for its vehicle acquisitions.
Cruise aims to bring a service that will give the public more than a self-driving service and a ride-hailing app that will get a person from point A to point B. Now, it is a delivery service that will help alleviate the need to wait for shipping in a delivery van that will take several days to weeks before it reaches a person.
Unlike the new self-driving delivery service, it will guarantee a faster and more efficient logistics focus.
